Data mining

This is an idea I had about data mining.
We can plot numbers in a 2 dimensional matrix giving which can give rise to graphs and pictorial representations.
I think it would be good if we could read out lines curves and in general pictorial patterns from the graphs. Maybe a straight line or curved sequences in data (and in turn their pictures) can help us to understand deep meanings within data.

Preventing Ddos attacks

If we had a whole network view of the internet couldn't DDos attacks be prevented

Searching versus sorting on the web

At present web traversal is search heavy. If you go to amazon.com and search for something (say a tablet) a bunch of results are returned back and you will have to wade through the results to find what you are looking for.
Imagine if this is the case if you go to your local store where a bunch of devices are randomly arranged on the shelves. Wouldn't you be confused.
In physical stores items are sorted based on category then probably based on manufacturer, then again based on size etc. Say tablets in one section computers in another TVs in another. Then again within tablets we will see arranged all devices of a manufacturer together etc.
So in physical stores items are sorted with minimal search and in the web items are listed with minimal sort.
I think it would be better for the user if some more sorting would be available on the web.

Debugging Web page displays on devices

There is a problem with web pages displaying differently on different devices.

It would be a great help to web page designers if they could somehow see the results on different device.

If a human were always on the web server end and the device would send back a bitmap showing the display results then the human could see the problem.

However this is not practical.

A web page is eventually made up of discrete elements. So if a device would send back a list of all elements with their grid position and width and height (along with the size of the display device) the an automated program can figure out how the web page should have displayed and how does it differ from what is being displayed.

We can take this a step further and figure out the bug in the device browser by asking the browser to send back to the web server the sequential order in which the elements are being put on the web page. From this an automated program can figure out the bug in the web browser on the device and work around it.
